We went to Pearl Harbor the last day in Hawaii. I was really excited to see the Arizona down in the water.When we got there we found out that they only sell so many tickets for the boat ride out there and the tickets were sold out by 10:00. We got there at 11:00. Lame. I was so sad. We decided to go on the USS Missouri which is a ship that was struck during the Pearl Harbor attack but didn't sink. They were able to repair it and it was the ship that the Japanese surrendered on. It was HUGE! Huge is an understatement. This thing was massive. It was really fascinating and it really hit home to actually be there and think about everything that happened that day. It is amazing that we have a place where we can honor those men and women that died that day.
